    Extractions: Customer Reviews This is an excellent overview of the evolutionary history and osteology of the vertebrate taxa, but it is dated, particularly as regards the Archosauromorpha. It's opposition to cladistic practices for formulating phylogenies, is also noteworthy. Thus, you will find that numerous bankrupt taxa and no longer accurate classification schemes still, unfortunately, present themselves in this volume. This book was my textbook for Vertebrate Paleontology and Evolution at the University of Rochester back in 1992. The book is very daunting to look at if you just flip through it. However, it does a nice job of introducing concepts and terms to the reader. Its organization is straightforward, starting with the simplest vertebrates and eventually finishing with mammals. Most groups are covered well, considering that the author's cover every group of vertebrates known. The biggest problem I had with the book was the section on dinosaurs, the biggest reason why I took the class. The information on them was limited to a few pages and much of the information was out-dated even in 1992. However, if you are looking for a good book on vertebrates, this is a must have. Just realize that some of the information may not reflect our current understanding since the book is over 10 years old and many new finds have come to light, new ideas have been introduced, and old ideas reexamined.

    Extractions: Welcome to my little corner of the Universe. Please sign my guestbook if you have time. I am an Associate Professor of Geology, specializing in vertebrate paleontology (reptiles) and computer applications in geology (see some of my publications below). Currently I am the WebMaster for the College of Science and Engineering and for the Department of Geology and Chair of the TCU Computer and Telecommunications Committee. I was born in the Panama Canal Zone during the early years of I Love Lucy. I have B.S. (1975) and M.A. (1977) degrees in Geology from the University of Texas at Austin and a Ph.D. (1982) in Anatomy from the University of Chicago . I taught as a lecturer in geology at the University of Texas at Austin from 1982 to 1985 and have been at TCU since 1985. I have team-conducted a number of EOSAT-sponsored image processing/geology workshops here at TCU, using our computer facilities. With others I have conducted microcomputer image processing workshops for ERIM and also at ECOINFORMA meetings. On the fun side, I have consulted with the Lincoln Park Zoo in Chicago and the Gladys Porter Zoo in Brownsville about fossil reptile dioramas and murals. I have been a judge in the Tarrant County Science Fair for a number of years, have twice judged at the International Science Fair and given talks to the public on various aspects of geology and paleontology.

Vertebrate Paleontology The Pratt Museum's Vertebrate Paleontology Collection is the third most outstanding in New England (after the Yale Peabody Museum and the Harvard University Natural History Museum). It consists of over 8,000 specimens, including 85 types (the first-discovered specimen of a fossil species). A strong science curriculum from the College's beginnings in the 1820s has been a key factor in developing the strength of the Collection which today includes representatives of all the major groups, while strongest in Cenozoic South and North American mammals. A searchable database for this collection has been created. Please contact the Collections Manager, Kate Wellspring, for details.

    Extractions: Mark D. Uhen's Research in Vertebrate Paleontology Dorudon atrox This site contains information about me and my research on fossil vertebrates. My main interests are in the evolution of cetaceans (whales and dolphins), the timing and nature of evolutionary diversification and radiation, phylogenetic analysis, and functional morphology. If any of this sounds interesting to you, please read on! If you don't know what any of it means, hopefully you will find out. BRIEF BIOGRAPHY I was born on January 30, 1968 in the small town of Burlington, Wisconsin to Marjorie A. and Roman F. Uhen. I attended school at St. Mary's grade school and high school (now Catholic Central High School). I went on to college at the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh where I received a BS with a major in geology and minor in geology in 1990. I continued my education at the University of Michigan where I received a M.S. in 1993 and Ph.D. in 1996, both in geology. My graduate advisor at Michigan was Philip D. Gingerich, Director of the Museum of Paleontology. In the fall of 1996 I was hired as the Curator of Paleontology and Zoology at the Cranbrook Institute of Science in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan. I also hold appointments of Adjunct Research Scientist at the

    Extractions: SYNOPSIS This course outlines the evolution of vertebrates, including ourselves, as examined by fossil evidence, in conjunction with knowledge from living vertebrates. Emphasis will be placed on such topics as evolutionary convergence, physical constraints, and the time line of vertebrate evolution in the history of Earth and its environment. The course aims to provide future earth and evolutionary scientists a framework in which to understand the context of their research in relation to the evolution of our own kind (vertebrates). I strongly believe that having such a big picture holds the key to their success as independent researchers. Therefore, students from earth sciences, as well as evolutionary sciences, are encouraged to enroll. OFFICE HOURS ETC.

    Extractions: FIELD WORK: This is the location and collection of fossils specimens. It involves extraction of fossils from rocks or sediment and their transport to a research facility. Significant data regarding the orientation and spatial relationships of the fossil specimens, the exact geographic location at which they were found, and the exact rock horizon (stratigraphic position) is carefully recorded. Without the latter two pieces of information, the scientific value of the specimens is greatly diminished. These kinds of field information provide biostratigraphy (relative age of specimens), paleoecology (reconstruction ancient environments) and taphonomy (cause of death, burial history). LABORATORY ANALYSIS: There are several steps to laboratory analysis. The first is preparation: the preservation, sorting, and reassembling of the fossil specimens collected from the field. Next is the study of these specimen, a close scrutiny of the material in order to deal with specific problems or series of problems. What kind of animal does the specimen represent? Is it like any other specimens that have been collected? But beyond the question of identification, vertebrate paleontologists are concerned with phylogeny (the animal's history and evolution), comparative anatomy (what is looked like, how it moved), systematics (relationships to other fossils or living animals), paleoecology (how the animal lived), etc.

    Extractions: SOCIETY OF VERTEBRATE PALEONTOLOGY (1994) The fossil record of vertebrates unequivocally supports the hypothesis that vertebrates have evolved through time, from their first records in the early Paleozoic Era about 500 million years ago to the great diversity we see in the world today. The hypothesis has been strengthened by so many independent observations of fossil sequences that it has come to be regarded as a confirmed fact, as certain as the drift of continents through time or the lawful operation of gravity.
